[rules-users] Dynamic Rules and Eval

[Davide Sottara]

It seems that the EvalNode in 5.5 is buggy with respect to this behavior.
A 5.6 release is scheduled for immediately after 6.0.CR1 - some time
next week -
so it will be fixed there.
Thanks for reporting
Davide

p.s. you may want to clear the KnowledgeBuilder in between incremental
additions.
In your example, the second "addKnowledgePackages" also readds the
pre-existing ones.
